Heartburn is one of the most common problems plaguing many people. Some only occasionally, others almost constantly. Although dietary choices greatly affect this condition, a burning sensation in the stomach or throat, tightness in the spleen, stomach or chest, and other heartburn symptoms can be exacerbated by some other factors. Check which one, and follow six helpful tips.
FAREWELL FROM TIGHT CLOTHES
If we are willing to suffer for order and beauty, then let health not suffer. Tight clothing, especially those that squeeze us in the waist, can exacerbate heartburn problems, so you better dress in something more comfortable. And we're not just talking about skinny jeans, but also a popular lingerie for women that is designed to shape the body and is accordingly tight in the abdomen. Experts warn that such lingerie is just as harmful to women's health as a corset. Due to the strong pressure on the stomach, acid starts to be produced and heartburn can result. Wearing skinny jeans can cause lameness, hernias and sore legs in both men and women in addition to heartburn.
CAREFUL LIFTING OF HEAVY OBJECTS
Heartburn symptoms most often occur after meals, but can also occur after strenuous exertion, which lifting heavy loads is certainly a must. If possible, leave the lifting of heavy objects to others, preferably those who do not have heartburn problems. Lifting lighter objects off the ground can also be problematic due to bending. This causes stomach acid to move from the stomach to the esophagus and can even trigger vomiting in more serious stomach acid problems. Gardening also requires a lot of bending from us. People who suffer from heartburn are headaches, so we advise them to cultivate the garden in high beams.
AVOIDING STRESS
If your way to relax is smoking, we need to tell you that you are harming yourself in two ways: firstly, obviously smoking, and secondly, being stressed. Stress and smoking only intensify the symptoms of heartburn. So try to get rid of both stress and cigarettes. Spring, when everything is green and a new round of life begins in nature, can be a great incentive for you. Spend as much time as possible in contact with nature, in the fresh air and in the forest, which is proven to relax.
WELL-CHEWED FOOD
Many people are surprised that he suffers from heartburn, even though he has not eaten anything of the kind that usually causes it to him. At that time, there is a high probability that the culprit for heartburn is not the food we eat, but the way we ate it. “Your stomach has no teeth! Therefore, it is very important for good digestion that you chew every bite well. In addition, it is important to eat calmly. if you eat nervously, your digestion won’t work the way it should, and there’s a good chance you’ll be heartburn. So when you are upset, it is better to skip a meal and enjoy the food when the stress subsides. Last but not least, pay attention to how much you eat. Too much food can harm you and cause heartburn, even if you eat a very healthy meal. The volume of the stomach is about one liter. But keep in mind that it doesn’t have to be quite full for good performance. And one more thing - sometimes let him rest and don't keep eating, "advises Karla Klander. But don't get it wrong. Frequent skipping of meals can also be the reason why you suffer from heartburn. Catching the right rhythm of eating can be quite a challenge, but the goal can be achieved with a little effort and self-observation.
BACK TO NATURE
Too often we reach for synthetic solutions that have harmful side effects. We may not be immediately aware of them, but research has shown that they are very harmful (brittle bones, addiction ... ) Nature can help you with heartburn even more concretely and without unwanted side effects: mallow, spleenwort, licorice, chamomile and aioja vera in the right doses quickly neutralize the burning sensation and eliminate stomach pain caused by irritated gastric mucosa, and allow that the problem is even fixed in the long run.
CHOICE OF RAISED PILLOW
“Heartburn symptoms usually get worse at night when we lie down. Then gravity does you no favors and so the stomach contents return to the esophagus more easily, which of course causes an unpleasant irritating sensation. The solution is a slightly raised bed, "reveals Karla Klander, a biotherapist according to the method of Zdenek Domančič and a nutritionist, and adds that just an extra pillow will probably not help much, as you will be able to get off it at night. Remember, though, that the last time for dinner is three to four hours before going to bed.
